Maximum Football Season 2 launched on Tuesday, March 25th, 2025. Overall, the season pass still includes free and premium rewards, but players now progress faster. Furthermore, if you upgrade to the premium pass later in the year, you instantly unlock any premium rewards you would have already earned. Additionally, the developers fine-tuned the weekly and seasonal challenges too make them “more approachable” for players. Lastly, your stars now count towards weekly & seasonal progress regardless of whether you play online, offline, Dynasty, or Exhibition.
But what else does Season 2 bring to the table?
Season 2 adds defensive hot routes, letting you adjust a defender's assignment pre-snap. Want your strong safety to abandon his zone coverage and go straight for a blitz? Or would you rather have your MLB drop back in zone defense instead of man coverage? Regardless, defensive hot routes enable you the ability to make changes before the snap.
Additionally, Season 2 adds alternate jerseys to Dynasty Mode. Players can now create an alternate uniform whenever they want, and you can choose which uniform to wear before the game. Overall, alternate jerseys add a little more fun to your season, and you can use them whenever and however many times you want.
Lastly, Maximum Football Season 2 brings Coach Mode to Online Exhibition. If you prefer strategy over gameplay, or you just want to see who's a better coach, the option is now available to you.
